Adding dependencies directly to a Microsoft QuickC version
2.50-generated make file can cause unpredictable results when
rebuilding from within the environment. The results observed so far
include the following:
1. The machine hangs.
2. A Fatal Internal Error is produced.
3. The error u1073 -- "don't know how to make Learn QuickC" occurs.
The problems mentioned above are unpredictable but stem from the same
cause. The make files generated by Microsoft QuickC are intended to be
modified solely through the use of certain editor menus, that is, the
make/edit program list. When direct changes are made to these make
files, any subsequent use of them by QuickC will meet with
unpredictable results.
If you want to make changes to a make file created by QuickC and still
use the integrated environment for building your program, you must do
so through the menu system. The other alternative is to make the
changes to the make file and then rebuild from the command line with
the NMAKE utility.
